‘Mayor’ Loses Head Cut Off by Antagonist Philadelphia, —(ANP)—While his neighbors looked on, Eddie Gibson, a member of the “Socie ty for tine Development of Our Own”, used a razor to cut off the head of Henry Grant, 50, self styled “mayor” of a squatter’s iettlement on a dump here during an altercation last week Gibson told polide who arrested him that Grant, because of his height and weight, often “picked on” other members of the society especially when be had been drink ing. The “mayor” was known as a tyrant “ruler.” During the fatal altercation ,ac eording to witnesses, Grant, who went to Gibson’s house and called Gibson outside, attacked Gibson with a pick-handle. Aiming the handle at Gibson, Grant missed him and struck another man. A second blow hit Gibson on the hip, according to the story. The two men then seized each other in mortal combat. Gibson took a razor from his pocket and severed the “mayor’s” head from fiis body. Gibson was arrested and held without bail to await the action of the grand jury. Communists Demand Equality For Negroes In A. F. of L. | f -* NEW YORK—(CNA)—In an ap peal issued by the Communist Par ty of America to the delegates of the forth^omng 55th Convention of the American Federaion of Lal/or, dis crimination against Negro workers in A. F. of L: Unions was roundly scored. In part the appeal declared: “Green (President of the A. F. of L.) and the A, F. of L. Council de clare that they cannnot stop Inter nationals from excluding Negroes as the unions are autonomous, and thus refuse to organize Negro workers, but autonomy does not stop him from splitting unions”. The statement also contained a de mand that discrimination against Ne gro workers be stopped. The propos al read as follows: “Equal rights and abolition of all discrimination against Negro and foreign born workers in employment, wages and relief.” The rank and file A. F. of L. mem bers were urged by the appeal to put through a legislative program which included, “Declaring illegal and pro viding penalties for any and all dis- j crimination against Negro workers and providing the death penalty for lynchers and anti-Negro terrorists.”j Tht 55th annual convention of the A. F. of L. will be held in October at Atlantic City, N. J. HEALTH, BEAUTY and CHARM Keep Young and Beautiful—If You Want To Be Loved SCHOOL DAYS! HAPPY DAYS! With the advent of September the minds and steps of the Moth er as well as o fthe child turns* “Schoolward’' happy days are here again for both. The child is happy because of the anticipated joy and pleasure of again seeing other children. The mother is hap py for the child because of the protection and advantages the schools offer; Happy for herself, because of the few hours of quiet ness at home. So often we hear mother exclaim, “Oh! I’ll be so glad when school starts so I car get these children out of the house and have a little peace!” Mother when you purchased the necessary dresses, hats shoes and etc., for your child prepara tory to the opening of school you naturally have in mind a mental I picture of just how your child would look so dressed. Were you pleased with the result? Were your efforts gratifyinge How did you arrange your little girl’s hair? Was ‘it a problem to you? When you found it impossible to arrange a suitable hair dress did you do for your child what you do for yourself under like con ditions? Namely, did you send your child to the hairdresser of your choice! Many o fwou did, we know that If you did not it is not too late. You do not want to help your child develop an in feriority complex. The present school system of Omaha is taking care of this nicely and needs no help from you. Your little girl or big girl for that matter does not want to go to school with kinks or with: small braids over her head. The! girl in front of her has her hair ;: bobbed, waved or arranged in a mass of curls. You can not af- ' ford to force your child to look < conspicious by appearing differ- ; ent. In your shop this month we are featuring styles from the kindergarten, through the grade school, high school and colleges. Mothers bring your children in and let us help you to help them.

Hofer( It’s easier to make a flowery statement than to answer simple questions. The people of the world are getting pretty sick and tired of statements. They wrant an swers. This summer I have met many business men in different parts of the cour*rv I have asked ques tions and tried to get answers. I have talked with wa ters in hotel dining rooms, with clerks in groc ery stores, with mechanics in gar ages, with attendants at oil fill ing stations, with proprietors of small stores and, recently at that cosmopolitan meeting place, the Mark Hopkins hotel in San Fran cisco, I heard opinions expressed by prominent business men who drift in from all parts of the world. After the smoke of partisan politics has been blown away, sen timent expressed by thoughtful persons is remarkably uniform on the following three points: 1* There is no sympathy for European war preparations and very definite opposition to this nation participating in another European conflict in any manner. 2. There is general resentment against political attempts to un dermine constitutional safeguards of persons and property in the United States. 3. From all sides come pro tects against the alarming in crease in public debt and tax bills —genuine fear is expressed as to what a “soak the rich” tax pro gram will do to American business and family savings. It’s a healthy sign when politic al and economic questions are| brought so close to the average American that he can see his place in the picture—from the clerk in i grocery store to the head-waiter n a leading hotel and the presi-1 lent of a great corporation.

SEVEN Bishop Washington Is Honored __ Monday, Sept. 16. A committee representing The Nebraska Intter denocinational Holiness Association, which is made up of churches all nver the state, met for the purpose of selecting speakers for the 1936 camp meeting to be held in Lincoln. After a consderable discussion of the l ading pulpiteers of the east, west,: and south, Rev. Burckhardt took the floor and assumed the privilige of of- i l'ering to this convention a Negro' speaker in the person of Bishop Washington and at the close of Rev. i Burckhardt’s talk. Bishop Washington was unani- j mously chosen as one of the speak ers. This will mark a new' epoch in I the history of this association which has never before inits history had a j paid Negro speaker on the program. | __ Making Others Suffer j Sometimes we hear the petulant statement “It's nobody's business what I do to myself”, and “He harms nobody but himself.” But such is'im possible. A wife suffers when her husband's wrong doings bring their inevitable penalties. The husband of a derelict cannot escape, when she sins and suf fers. Sorrow, grief shame, humilia tion, come to parents when their chil dren are wayward and bring trouble upon themselves. And let it be re membered also, that many a child suffers because of mistakes and sins of parents. Yes, it is a fact, an inescapable fact, that “Suffering follows sin,’* and it is true, undeniably true, that the suffering is never confined to the individual who is guilty of trans gressions. Because of their relation to such derelicts, many are made to suffer innocently. These are things to which most serious consideration jphould be given, especially at times tdien there is inclination to go wrong.
